>we can be a little elitist about who qualifies as a DC native! I think you should have a caveat for transplants who've lived here for over ten years, not that I'm one, though! My family moved here during the New Deal to work. I was born in DC, brought up in Cheverly, moved back to DC as a teen.
That's my point, but I didn't communicate it clearly :)
That there are plenty of people with real tangible ties to DC. It's not just all these transients passing through, or that nobody identifies with the place, or that it isn't a real true home to thousands.
